Abstract: To meet the goals and 

objectives that demonstrate the U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA’s) and the Administration’s 

commitment to achieving 

environmental justice and embedding 

environmental justice into Agency 

programs, the Environmental Justice 

Thriving Communities Grantmaking 

Program provides about $600 million in 

11 cooperative agreements funding to 

‘‘Grantmakers’’ who will function as 

pass-through entities for the 

Environmental Justice Thriving 

Communities Subgrants (2 CFR parts 

200 and 1500). Each Grantmaker will 

collaborate with EPA to design and 

build their own processes to receive and 

evaluate applications to fund the 

development of community-led 

environmental justice projects. With 

this Information Collection Request 

(ICR), EPA seeks approval for the 

Grantmakers to (a) solicit application for 

subawards and (b) to collect reports 

from recipients of subawards to track 

their progress. Collection of this 

information is essential for Grantmakers 

to select and distribute the subawards, 

and to assess and manage the funded 

projects, which ensures responsible 

stewardship of public funds; rigorous 

evidence-based learning and 

improvement; and transparent 

accountability to the American public. 

This ICR also requests approval for the 

Grantmakers to collect input and 

insights from communities who seek to 

obtain technical assistance services, as 

well as stakeholders who have valuable 

experience and expertise in community 

engagement and empowerment. These 

information collections via (c) surveys 

and (d) focus groups will enable the 

Centers to document local priorities, 

needs, and norms to ensure that they 

develop useful and relevant technical 

assistance and training services. 

Furthermore, feedback about these 

services will enable the Centers to 

conduct self-assessments to identify best 

practices and areas for improvement. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Recipients of financial assistance 

subawards from Grantmakers, 

community members, stakeholders. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory for recipients of subawards 

to obtain or retain a benefit (2 CFR parts 

200 and 1500). Voluntary for public 

outreach information collection via 

surveys and focus groups. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

295,638 (per year). 

Frequency of response: Varies.

Need and Use: EXIM’s financial 

institution policy holders provide this 

form to U.S. exporters, who certify to 

the eligibility of their exports for EXIM 

support. The completed forms are held 

by the financial institution policy 

holders, only to be submitted to EXIM 

in the event of a claim filing. A 

requirement of EXIM’s policies is that 

the insured financial institution policy 

holder obtains a completed Exporter’s 

Certificate at the time it provides 

financing for an export. This form will 

enable EXIM to identify the specific 

details of the export transaction 

necessary for determining the eligibility 

of claims for approval. EXIM staff and 

contractors review this information to 

assist in determining that an export 

transaction, on which a claim for nonpayment has been submitted, meets all 

the terms and conditions of the 

insurance coverage. EXIM uses the 

referenced form to obtain exporter 

certification regarding the export 

transaction, U.S. content, non-military 

use, non-nuclear use, compliance with 

EXIM’s country cover policy, and their 

eligibility to participate in USG 

programs. These details are necessary to 

determine the legitimacy of claims 

submitted. It also provides the financial 

institution policy holder a check on the 

export transaction’s eligibility, at the 

time it is fulfilling a financing request. 

Affected Public: This form affects 

entities involved in the export of U.S. 

goods and services.

Need and Use: This form is used by 

an exporter (or broker acting on its 

behalf) in order to obtain approval for 

coverage of the repayment risk of export

of the applicant and the 

creditworthiness of one of the 

applicant’s foreign buyers for EXIM

small U.S. businesses with limited
